The fundamental band for the OC-C2H2 dimer and two combination bands involving the intermolecular bending modes nu9 and nu8 in the carbon monoxide CO stretch region are re-examined. Spectra are obtained using a pulsed supersonic slit jet expansion probed with a mode-hop free tunable infrared quantum cascade laser. Analogous bands for OC-C2D2 and the fundamental for OC-DCCH as an impurity are also observed and analysed. A much weaker band in the same spectral region is assigned to a new mixed trimer, CO-(C2H2)2. The trimer band is composed uniquely of a-type transitions, establishing that the CO monomer is nearly aligned with the a-inertial axis. The observed rotational constants agree well with ab initio calculations and a small inertial defect value indicates that the trimer is planar. The structure is a compromise between the T-shaped structure of free acetylene dimer and the linear geometry of free OC-C2H2. A similar band for the fully deuterated isotopologue CO-(C2D2)2 confirms our assignment.

Some O and B stars show unusually strong or weak lines of carbon and/or nitrogen. These objects are classified as OBN or OBC stars. It has recently been shown that nitrogen enrichment and carbon depletion are the most likely explanations for the exis
tence of the ON class. We investigate OC stars (all being supergiants) to check that surface abundances are responsible for the observed anomalous line strengths. We perform a spectroscopic analysis of three OC supergiants using atmosphere models. A fourth star was previously studied by us. Our sample thus comprises all OC stars known to date in the Galaxy. We determine the stellar parameters and He, C, N, and O surface abundances. We show that all stars have effective temperatures and surface gravities fully consistent with morphologically normal O supergiants. However, OC stars show little, if any, nitrogen enrichment and carbon surface abundances consistent with the initial composition. OC supergiants are thus barely chemically evolved, unlike morphologically normal O supergiants.
We have shown that the red cells found in the Red Rain (which fell on Kerala, India, in 2001) survive and grow after incubation for periods of up to two hours at 121 oC . Under these conditions daughter cells appear within the original mother cells a
nd the number of cells in the samples increases with length of exposure to 121 oC. No such increase in cells occurs at room temperature, suggesting that the increase in daughter cells is brought about by exposure of the Red Rain cells to high temperatures. This is an independent confirmation of results reported earlier by two of the present authors, claiming that the cells can replicate under high pressure at temperatures up to 300 oC. The flourescence behaviour of the red cells is shown to be in remarkable correspondence with the extended red emission observed in the Red Rectangle planetary nebula and other galactic and extragalactic dust clouds, suggesting, though not proving, an extraterrestrial origin.
Oxygen atom addition and insertion reactions may provide a pathway to chemical complexity in ices that are too cold for radicals to diffuse and react. We have studied the ice-phase reactions of photo-produced oxygen atoms with C2 hydrocarbons under I
SM-like conditions. The main products of oxygen atom reactions with ethane are ethanol and acetaldehyde; with ethylene are ethylene oxide and acetaldehyde; and with acetylene is ketene. The derived branching ratio from ethane to ethanol is ~0.74 and from ethylene to ethylene oxide is ~0.47. For all three hydrocarbons there is evidence of an effectively barrierless reaction with O(^1D) to form oxygen-bearing organic products; in the case of ethylene, there may be an additional barriered contribution of the ground-state O(^3P) atom. Thus, oxygen atom reactions with saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons are a promising pathway to chemical complexity even at very low temperatures where the diffusion of radical species is thermally inaccessible.
We present the first high-resolution, ground-based observations of HCN and C2H2 toward the T Tauri binary star system GV Tau. We detected strong absorption due to HCN nu_3 and weak C2H2 (nu_3 and nu_2 + (nu_4 + nu_5)^0_+) absorption toward the primar
y (GV Tau S) but not the infrared companion. We also report CO column densities and rotational temperatures, and present abundances relative to CO of HCN/CO ~0.6% and C2H2/CO ~1.2% and an upper limit for CH4/CO < 0.37% toward GV Tau S. Neither HCN nor C2H2 were detected toward the infrared companion and results suggest that abundances may differ between the two sources.
Cs$_2$ Rydberg-ground molecules consisting of a Rydberg, $nD_{J}$ (33 $leq$ $n$ $leq$ 39), and a ground state atom, 6$S_{1/2} (F=$3 or 4$)$, are investigated by photo-association spectroscopy in a cold atomic gas. We observe vibrational spectra that
correspond to triplet $^TSigma$ and mixed $^{S,T}Sigma$ molecular states. We establish scaling laws for the energies of the lowest vibrational states vs principal quantum number and obtain zero-energy singlet and triplet $s$-wave scattering lengths from experimental data and a Fermi model. Line broadening in electric fields reveals the permanent molecular electric-dipole moments; measured values agree well with calculations. We discuss the negative polarity of the dipole moments, which differs from previously reported cases.
